Sorry, sorry. Been busy and all that. But because so many of you have been clamoring (well, okay, a few of you asked nicely) I’ll try to get back into it.

We’ve had unseasonably nice weather up in New England, so this weekend I pulled the road bike out of the back corner of the garage, pumped up the tires, and went for a 15 mile spin – first I’ve been on it since November. About 4 or 5 miles in, I realized that over the winter, the frost heaves made the hills steeper. Oh, and somebody must have moved the saddle position, because my butt is freakin’ sore, as are my legs and back and arms…

Anyway, I don’t normally bike in jeans, but I don’t have any long, stretchy pants, and I was worried that I would be a little chilly. Turns out that after a couple of miles, I was already overheated. So, here’s me in my tight, stretchy lycra shirt, and some old, baggy jeans.

I managed not to put on too much muffin top over the winter, no thanks to my wife and daughter who keep baking up a storm every week. Why do women do that?

I’m waiting for the weather to warm up just a little bit more so I can squeeze into those tight spandex bike shorts. Those things are like Spanx for men, but they do round out my butt pretty nicely.

So, for all of you who have been dying to see pictures of a 50+ year old, gray-haired guy, well, here’s your fix.

Yeah, you’re a little further south. Folks down there have told me that the weather has been mild all year. I was happy to be able to keep biking until November, but in January, I actually put some old knobby tires on my mountain bike and took it out in the snow!

This makes me want to take my bike out. This winter has been outrageously nice — such a big change from the last winter, where those of us in New England started to run out of places to put the snow.

Mostly I’ve been sticking to my Vespa, though. Which here in Boston did not actually go away in the garage all year; with a few exceptions I rode through the winter. I think I’m living in a narrow band of time when Boston becomes temperate year round but before it’s underwater…
